A school bus with several children on board was saved from a potentially fatal attack by a group of people because of the timely intervention of police in Bihar's Gopalganj today.

However, the Gopalganj police and district administration thwarted the attempt.
Visuals showed the yellow bus surrounded by the mob armed with sticks. A man was seen burning a tyre right under the bus. Several burning tyres were seen scattered on the road on which the bus was trying to pass.
